Hi All,

I thought I’d share a little Applescript app I wrote up to help me in my day to day SSHing…

I like to have my various connections to different severs color coded to help me know which system I’m about to break.

To that end I wrote up this little script.

Just copy & paste into Applescript Editor and Save As an Application or whatever

Enjoy
